Julia Donaldson Pack

A runaway stick, a storytelling fish, and a Gruffalo with terrible claws! A witch with a broomful of animals – and a dragon with hungry jaws. Meet them in five rhyming picture books from a much-loved team. Written by Julia Donaldson and illustrated in luminous colours by Axel Scheffler, each of these vivid rhyming stories is a triumph of imagination. From the stick who finds himself lost in a hostile world to the witch who shares her broom with lots of eager animals, each story explores themes of friendship, teamwork and exploration. Bursting with addictive rhymes, clever twists and heroic characters, these are simply as good as it gets!
